Bit like everything else really, all a bit personal. Like bikes there are probably no bad ones and you should buy to budget and try before you buy 💡
Played squash for best part of 30yrs but due to knackered knees and back I have finally had to give up 😥
Club coach was a rep for Karakal and I had been using them for quite a few years without issue.
If a beginner don’t go too light, light racquets can be hard work.
You need to like the “feel” of the grip and balance. If it feels right it will be. Wouldn’t worry about stringing until you break some.
Prince, Karakal, Wilson, Dunlop, Kappa, Greys are all popular makes.
not looking to get into it in a big way, but want to get a racquet
Hahaha……that’s what I said. Started off with a mate playing once a week(with wood racquets)and progressed to 7 days a week with the occasional double session, play for teams inc the occasional stand-in role for the clubs West of Scotland team 😆 🙄
